you need to make sure your nails are clean... find a nail to fit your finger...then place the glue on the nail...apply the fake nail in the middle of your nail...then let it dry...after that you apply the acrylic upon you nail by brushing it up and down to a smooth texture...let it dry...there you go acrylic nails at home

do not try to do these your self this is we have trained technicians, so you dont damage your own nail. if you want to do your own why not do a training course and learn from a pro.

If it come with a starter kit you should have some wrap adhesive and wrap sealer or something similar depending on companys instructors. Apply wrap adhesive on to the nail. I usually do four nails the adhesive is usually irredescent when it has gone clear then apply the foil pull it tight when applying on to the nail use cotton bud run it down the middle and then side to side of the nail keep rubbing until transfered onto the nail the foil will start lifting when its due to come off you might have to rip off like aplaster. If you want it on whole nail. Or if you have painted the nails do the above steps but only on the section of the nail what you want to do. Then when finished all ten nails apply wrap sealer or companys make! Using normal top coat usually makes it look like crazy paving (I call It) cracks.

Hope this has helped chick!

You apply rhinestones to nails by first putting coat of clear polish on the nail surface. You then use clear polish to pick the stones up and place them using a wooden stick. After all rhinestones are in place put another coat of clear polish down, and place nail glue around the edges so that the stones will not fall off.

1. First apply a base coat

2. Apply normal nail polish (any)

3. Let it fully dry

4. Then apply a thin coat of crackle nail polish, if thick it will crack less

They usually start by putting glue on and then the nail, they then move it around a little bit to find the position it looks best in.

Acrylic Nails in Three Easy Steps?

Naturally beautiful nails are great, but sometimes a girl needs to look her best even though her real nails are a raggedy, bitten-down mess. Acrylic nails are a great solution to this problem. Acrylic nails are fake nails attached to your natural nails with strong acrylic, giving the appearance of long, healthy talons that any woman would be proud to flash around town. Acrylic nails can be a little expensive at the nail salon, so follow these instructions to apply them at home:PreparationPrepare your natural nails by trimming them short and giving them a quick manicure to remove polish, smooth edges and remove any dead skin. After doing this, roughen your natural nails with a filing block and set out your materials. You will need acrylic nails that fit your natural nail width, nail glue, a very small dish, liquid acrylic, powdered acrylic, an acrylic brush, nail oil and clippers for acrylic nails.ApplicationApply a drop of nail glue to one of your natural nails and smooth the glue from bottom to top, making sure there is enough glue at the top for a firm bond. Attach an acrylic nail to the tip of your natural nail and then pour some liquid acrylic into your small dish. Liquid acrylic is strong smelling stuff, so be sure to open a window and turn on a fan before pouring it out so you don't get a headache. Dip your acrylic brush into the liquid acrylic, wipe the brush on the edge of the bottle to remove any excess and then dip the brush in the powdered acrylic. Smooth the mixture of liquid and powdered acrylic over your natural nail up to and on to the acrylic nail, repeating until you've built up a copy of the natural curve of your nail. Be careful not to get the acrylic mixture on your cuticles, because this can cause mold or fungus to form.FinishingAfter applying all ten nails, let them dry for ten minutes. When they are dry, trim and file the acrylic nails to the shape you want and then scrub them with soapy water to remove any nail dust. Your cuticles have just been exposed to some very drying chemicals, so make sure to put a good coat of nail oil on them to seal in moisture. Your beautiful new acrylic nails should last for about two weeks.
